UNIX - Software Restriction Policy?

I am looking to find an equivalent to Software Restriction Policies in Windows, for Open source distributions. Nothing platform specific, I just want to see what is out there. Does anyone know of anything similar?

Unfortunately chmod wont stop a user from executing an altered binary they had +x permissions on. Also SRP can deny anything but the installation of signed and approved software. So in short... what happens when a user executes code they loaded themselves?
